We've already detected some problems with the current fetcher implementation
that uses 'urllib'. For example, it can't handle authenticated proxies
(issue107) so in this case the user is forced to have pycurl.

We're still discussing if the best way to solve those two kinds of problems
would be enforcing pycurl or changing to 'urllib2'.

Because of that, please, continue using pycurl. I'm deferring this ticket for
future review.
